Model Description The Purge Gas Injector accessory is designed to insert a tube (purge tube) into an ampule through which an inert purge gas may be introduced. This accessory can also be used with the Ampulmatic- 10 Liquid Filler accessory to automatically fill ampules with precisely measured liquid volumes. The purge tube is inserted when an ampule is positioned directly beneath it and removed prior to the ampule moving to the next position.

Setup Follow the instructions for setting up the Ampulmatic-10 base unit located in the Ampulmatic-10 Operation and Maintenance Manual. The Ampulmatic-10 base unit and the Purge Gas Injector module have separate power supplies (the Purge Gas Injector module uses the higher amperage supply of 5A). The switch on the front of the gas purge module controls power to the gas purging accessory only.

Adjusting Purge Gas and Liquid Filler Injector Heads Adjustments will need to be made for each ampule size to be used. 1. Place the correct carousel on the turntable with no ampules in the carousel. Turn on the Ampulmatic-10 base unit power to rotate the carousel. When it stops at a sealing position, turn off the Ampulmatic-10 base unit power.
Additional Adjustments The centering fixture has been factory set for proper position. However, the user should verify that the tip of the stainless steel tubing is just above the conical portion of the Teflon centering piece when the Purge Gas Injector Head is in the raised position. As the Purge Gas Injector Head encounters the ampule, the conical portion guides the ampule tip to the center and allows the tube to enter.
Maintenance The Ampulmatic-10 Purge Gas accessory was designed to require a minimum amount of maintenance. However, following the recommended maintenance procedures and intervals will ensure that you obtain the highest level of reliability and fluid injection accuracy. Daily (Before Use) •...
